Introduction
 ORIGIN:-
 The word `COMPUTER`comes from `COMPUTE`
means `to calculate`and computer means
`calculating machine`
 DEFINITION:-
 computer is an automatic electronic device which
store,retrives & process data to show necessary
results.
 Cannot think but carry out instructions using 0 & 1

Micro Computer
 Smallest among all digital computer.
 usually 01 processor. Uses- Usually in the office
& home
 Micro computer known a PC, are micro processor
based small desktop, laptop, notebook, palmtop,
PDA system varying with size, speed, processing
capacity.
 The brain of computer is μ processor, a silicon
drip containing millions of CKT to perform
arithmetic and logic operation and to contrast
input output system.

Micro Computer
 Early computers had single μ processor, primary
& secondary and input output device with limited
processing power, now days micro computers
have wider processing capabilities with wide
rang of input output devices.
 In addition to general purpose computations,
micro computers are also used for special
purpose applications in a automobile, airplane,
toys, clerks and also in multi tasking, multi user
networking.

Mini Computer
 High speed, More than 01 I/O is found, With the help of
`TERMINAL` hundreds of people can work together.
 Ex- IBM-S/34, IBM-S/36, PDP-11
 Uses- Industry, Quality control, Research
 It is larger in size as compared to micro Computers and has
higher memory and storage capacity, speed and price.
 It supports multi processor input output device

10. Ashis Talukder, EMA, Department
of MIS, DU
10
Mini Computer
 It perform basic arithmetic and logic functions and supports
some of the programming language used with large
computer.
 They are suited for processing tasks that do not require
accent to loge volume of stored data.
 Some expensive mini computers are capable of supporting
number of terminals in time shored mode.
 They are used in industry, research and in news king.

11
Mainframe Computer
 A large computer generally consists of modules mounted on
a mainframe. known as mainframe computer.
 As compared to micro and mini computers, it has greater
processing speed, greater storage capacity, a larger variety
of input output devices, support for a number of high
speed storage device, multi programming and time sharing
environment.
 It requires high trained staff to run efficiently.

12. Ashis Talukder, EMA, Department
of MIS, DU
12
Mainframe Computer
 All types of high level `Peripheral System`
 languages & software are used. With the `TIME
SHARING/SLICE` system hundreds of people
work together.
 MULTIPROGRAMMING & Large scale input is
operated by highly trained operator.
 Ex-CYBER-170, IBM-4300, UNIVAC-1100
 Uses- Census, Space research, Large business &
universities, Military, WAN etc

13. Ashis Talukder, EMA, Department

Super Computer
 The most powerful, expensive, with
highest processing speed computer is
super computer.
 The astronomical cost of super computers
has limited their development to only a
few hundred world wide and it is
considered a national wealth.

14. Ashis Talukder, EMA, Department
of MIS, DU
14
Super Computer
 High speed calculation, More than thousand processor works
simultaneously, Can handle a large number of data.

 Ex- PARAGON, CRAY X-MP, PARAM, DEEP BLUE,ETA-02P,
SUPER SXII
 Uses- Used in Medical science, atomic energy control,
weather & element analysis, gene analysis and more
complex and sophisticated scientific analysis, Simulation, In
the Spaceship

 On the basis of Working principal
 Analog
 Digital
 Hybrid
Classification of computer

16. Ashis Talukder, EMA, Department
of MIS, DU
16
Analog
 Works by using `continuously varying Analog
signal`,
 no memory is found,
 shows output directly with the help of
`indicator/plotter/graph/metre`,
 only one task can perform at a given period of
time.
 Represents physical quantities such as Distance.
 Accuracy is less than 0.1%
 Ex- Speedometer, Slide roll, Operational
amplifier etc.

17. Ashis Talukder, EMA, Department
of MIS, DU
17
Digital
 Made on the basis of Digital signal.
 Works on `Binary system`. Mathematical
calculation with 0 & 1 is done for problem
solving.
 Requires storage capacity.
 Accuracy is high as result is shown with more
places of number after Decimal.
 Shows result on the screen. Can access several
tasks at time.
 Ex- Desktop, Laptop etc
 Uses- Official works, Playing games etc

18. Ashis Talukder, EMA, Department
of MIS, DU
18
Hybrid
 Combination of `Analog & Digital` system of
data processing.
 In this system data is input by analog method,
then it is processed and shows result digitally.
 Use- Used where both application of Analog and
digital is needed.
 Ex- In hospital, Spaceship, Missile etc

 03.On the basis of Purpose
 Special Purpose
 General Purpose
Classification of computer

20. Ashis Talukder, EMA, Department
of MIS, DU
20
General Purpose
 Used to execute different types of tasks using
the same hardware.
 It is done using `Stored Programme Concept`.
 These are `more versatile` but `comparatively
slow` than the special purpose computer.
 Ex- Desktop, Palmtop, laptop etc
 Uses- Home, Office etc

21. Ashis Talukder, EMA, Department
of MIS, DU
21
Special Purpose
 Designed for special/specific task
execution
 As it performs only one major task its
`efficiency` and `speed` is more.
 Also known as `Dedicated computer`.
 Ex- Autorefractometer
 Uses- Traffic signal control, Toll collection
on highway, In the Automobiles etc
